Common Lisp implementations may still have car, cdr, etc. for backward
compatibility, but I haven't seen any human written/read Lisp code using them
for ages. So that is a bit of a false argument by Bob on that one. Clojure is
fun, but only if you already have to have the JVM and The Java Platform.
Common Lisp implementations have all the needful and do not have the resource
requirements of the JVM, and they have JITs.
